I have never written a song about the RPM Challenge itself, until now. Have we really been here for 15 years? It needed to be fun, it needed to be a great dance number. I had the gtr riff, and realized it would be even better as a horn line. The…
As I have mentioned in other years, I am so very blessed to have some songs come to me in my dreams. Grace is one of them. The specific line "Grace, grace, grace! You don't have to be a lonely child" is what I retained in my waking moments so…

Now a decade old, I thought I would revisit this mix again. I have done this a few times as I continue to learn the craft. I thought it would be a good exercise to undertake as a start thinking about writing again for the next record.

AS always, wonderfully done. Crisper tones and higher fidelity. Your voice sounds amazing; every time I try to remix something I lose the charm, you have kept the charm and added sparkle!

Aww yes... I was frantically exchanging messages with a crazy person while it was all playing... so I gotta come back when it's quiet (maybe when I'm working next week)... maybe even read the blurbs that go with the songs... but yeah, loved it... how do you manage this every year??!
Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…
Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…
We're so quick to judge others. We really shouldn't.
This one follows the tone of It Mattered To No One Else. I actually had a lot more song ideas like these two that I thought would end up being the whole record. But it didn't happen that…
The Again, Again, Again line and melody has been flowing through my brain since 2017 or so. But if we are merely vessels for songs that are waiting to come to our shores, I was a leaky boat for a very long time and couldn't make the journey without…
And now a complete change. I like variety, and this introduces a new feel to the record. Until the mid-section, when the spacey connection returns, though in a subtle way.

Ok, this one has a journey for its creation. The original riff actually came to me in the heat of late August 2013. I still remember when it came to me. It was in a different key, with a slight different resolution. It felt like a hot summer's…
Created all in one go with nothing to write on while I walked the Hilton Head beach in the rain last spring, this gentle little song more came through me than from me.

Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song...
I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…

Troubles on my mind
Just wanna go underground
And leave it all behind
Open the window!

Steppin' on the gas
Blowin' down the freeway

Got my eyes wide open…

Comments made by Gary Fox
Great use of percussion on this number, and again, I love the use of space.
Your guitar work is so very, very tasty.
Reverb...so beautiful, so luscious. This song...wow.
I love the sound you have imbued in the record this year. This song makes such a great use of tone, space, and texture.
Yet another amazing piece of music. This record sounds beautiful.
Damn, this is a great song.
Within seconds of the song opening, I am hooked. This sounds amazing, absolutely amazing.
What a great collection, Keith. Magnificent.
I don't have words to describe how good this is.
Yeah, I love this one.
I love the warm, upfront sound of this. Great song!
Brilliant, my friend.
Brilliant tune! The band sounds killer!
This sounds fantastic. Totally loving the chords and the interplay with the bass.
Love the echo effects on the chorus. Cool tune, man!
Nice searing tone on that guitar. Sounds like the strings were on fire. Very cool...
Keys! Awesome tone, really like how the chorus comes in.
I like the pulsing bass, perfect offset to the groove. And, as always, great guitar work yet again!
Nice use of the Mixolydian mode! I like how it makes the songs have a positive musical tone against the darker aspect of the lyrics. Very cool KC!
Dude...killer. Loving the rhythm section on this...
